[Daine sits curled up in one of the really cushy chairs set in a random corner of the library. Surrounding the base of her seat, a few books haphazardly lay in rather unorganized piles, atop one of which is the open journal. Nothings interesting resounds from the pages for a while, but eventually she speaks up, posing a general question to the castle at large.]

I've been thinking recently, probably too much, and a thought came to mind. There are some things the castle can replicate, like a room or an item to an extent, but then, there are others it can't come to match.

What's something you miss from home that Paradisa isn't able to reproduce? A magical spot, some sort of creature or item... I'm interested.

Able, or willing?

[Worth verifying. One question is interesting, the other isn't.]

[daine]

Who can say for sure?

[workaphilic]

Fair enough. For argument's sake, let's say the castle isn't "able" to produce something if it gives you an imperfect replica, whereas it isn't "willing" if it gives you nothing. Not the most comprehensive definitions, but they'll do.

Which one are you more interested in?

[daine]

The question I asked was what you missed, but now-- [She pauses.] I'd want to know both, I think. Not as much in relation to what you chose as your answer, but more in regards to the castle itself.

[workaphilic]

Thought as much. [He sounds pleased.] I have some relevant data. Doesn't pertain much to me specifically, but I hardly think that matters, does it?

[daine]

Perhaps not at the moment, no.
